That depends on the use of the computer. For spreadsheets, which are usually wider than taller, they can be useful. Likewise with applications that have a picture window and lots of palettes around them.
Though, personally, I prefer bigger, very high resolution, and probably somewhere around 4:3. Since most of my reading seems to be mail and web.
Most screens tend to be rather poor resolution, so you have little choice but to run windows full-screen, and with biggish fonts.
